I don't see why people post a list of all the cars they've owned in their sig line. I don't even care about the cars you own now unless it is pertinent to the thread.

The grumpy is powerful in this thread.

VERY nice stable! I'd be happy to own any of those cars. :D

PM me first if you want to dump the Z. ...If it's orange, I'll throw in golf lessons for free.

Yes, the 912 should be available very soon, Gonna have to dig out of my 2 car garage which is currently housing 3 cars haha. Look for it within the next week probably. Its a very good base to start from, not a basket case, and will have a few extras included.

Sorry the Z is a keeper. Was my first purchase and my wife is now emotionally vested into it. Might even end up being her car once its finished. I should probably start another thread and post pictures of the progress on all the cars, even though they arent all porsche related.

Trust me this list would go on and on and on if I posted sold cars. These are the current ones, which dont even include some of the parts cars, and motorcycle haha

There is no logical reason to clog up page after page after page with wasted electrons.

Speak for yourself. I love to see what people have in their garage.

Wow, lots of grumpy old man karma in here.....

Steve Carlton 04-19-2017 08:07 PM

I would like to see pictures NOW.

Bill Douglas 04-19-2017 08:21 PM

I for one for love to see a pic of the car. The more electrons the better. If you don't want to do a car pic a cat or dog pic will just fine too.

I will guess you have been to the proving ground near by in Yakam ?

Actually I'm not sure what you're referring to??

righteousrags88 04-19-2017 09:20 PM

Like I said they're all in project state besides the Alfa which should be cleared through customs by friday. But here's a picture of it being loaded when it was getting transported to a port in Nagoya.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1492663801.jpg

On this board that never happens.

Check out the Stijn! thread. It has more replies than any other thread on this board. It is a thread about nothing at all. Kinda like a random thoughts thread.

Just start on page one and read it all the way through :eek:

I don't think grumpy has anything to do with it.

How many of us have visited a car forum (other than pelican) that allowed huge signatures with pictures of member's cars or trucks etc, and the signatures took up 3/4 of the friggin page?
Scroll, scroll, scroll, hey was that content?
No, just more signature.

Shirley there has to be some content in that thread somewhere,
Right Shirley?

We already have advertisements show up under posts when not logged in.
We don't need the signatures to surpass the actual posts.

THAT is why I said what i said.

It is a bid deal? Not even. But it can get out of hand.

EDIT:
and besides, that's only my opinion and it means nothing. This isn't my forum and i don't make the rules.

Sam, I think you might have a little sand in your panties, let it go.

scuze the you know what out of me for having an opinion, but yur right. there are bigger things to be concerned about than someone's future barn finds.


Hey BTW, did you notice that WDfifteen agreed with me in this thread? bet that'll never happen again.

Flying monkeys everywhere.

Here's more of the Alfa. Ive owned it since Friday but I was able to do alittle shoot with it with FullofHappy. Since then I have removed the front and rear bumpers, sorted through some unneeded wiring, and ordered some more parts for it from Alfaholics.

I don't care who you are, that there is funny.

Well, perhaps funny is too strong a word, but Ironic, now there's a word...
